Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Is there a script for Mirroring Animation Curves?

Hello, I wanted to know if there was a script for mirroring animation curves.

I have a character who goes into a duck animation, and when I realized that the "getting out of duck animation" was literally just a reverse going into duck animation, I thought to myself that this would work more effectively as a script than trying to do it manually.

Thanks for reading.

I believe what you want is reversing an animation, not mirroring it. But just so you know, the animation is not just the reverse of the other. If you watch someone duck, and then get back up, they shift their weight into different places, and the anticipation is quite different. Just reversing it will most likely look quite strange.

One way to reverse an animation is to do the following: https://simplymaya.com/forum/showpost...98&postcount=3

Imagination is more important than knowledge.
